Re: the tv wont play in windows media center

I am having a similar problem, my LIVE TV works but for the first 30 seconds
or so what seems to be the problem? I just hooked my direct tv up to the pc,
but then WMC freezes up, the computer does not. My tv tuner is built in. It's
a bran new computer. Any suggestions would be great!

If you have a solution please email it to me at bobanm89@xxxxxx or

Go to start and type: DXDIAG
Run some of the tests to see if you have a good install of DirectX.
